Chapter 100 Samurai Go was captured
Four days later.
The group hid inside the tomb, their bodies itching unbearably, filthy and worse off than beggars.
Beside Wei Shuyu was a brocade box containing the Imperial Seal of the State.
Their judgment was correct.
The Imperial Seal of the State is inside the stone coffin!
Now that they have the Imperial Seal of the State, they can't leave.
"Why isn't my dad here to save me yet?"
Choi Shin-ki was crying.
The search by the group outside has not stopped.
The expected rescue efforts have not materialized at all.
"I will never eat scallion pancakes again in my life."
Fang Yi'ai took a big bite of the scallion pancake.
"Alright."
Wei Shuyu stood up: "I'll break through and call for backup."
"You all stay here and whatever you do, don't go out."
"Remember to keep the room well-ventilated."
Several people looked moved.
"Big pot, be careful..."
"Safety is the most important thing."
"Since no one has come to rescue us for so long, be careful of ambushes on the road."
Several people showed signs of worry.
Qin Shandao was still fast asleep in the corner...
"Don't worry, these people can't do anything to me."
Wei Shuyu smiled slightly.
After leaving the tomb, Wei Shuyu cautiously descended the mountain.
Daytime is not the same as nighttime.
He can move freely at night, but he is easily exposed during the day.
To his surprise, he encountered an enemy along the way.
As they approached the foot of the mountain, a sudden sound of fighting erupted from below.
Has reinforcement arrived?
Wei Shuyu descended the mountain at top speed.
Sure enough, a group of soldiers were fighting with the group.
And leading the troops from the rear was none other than Qin Qiong himself!
Qin Shandao had been missing for four days, and Qin Qiong naturally wouldn't sit idly by.
"Uncle Qin!"
After the soldiers killed and captured about a hundred people, Wei Shuyu ran down the mountain.
"Shuyu".
Qin Qiong was quite excited and quickly dismounted to greet them: "Are you all alright? Where is Shandao?"
"Uncle Qin, don't worry, everyone is fine."
Only after Wei Shuyu finished speaking did Qin Qiong finally feel relieved.
He quickly put on a stern face and scolded, "What are you guys doing running into the mountains for no reason?"
"What Your Majesty requested has been found," Wei Shuyu replied.
Um?
Qin Qiong was shocked: "Are you sure it's that thing?"
"By the mandate of Heaven, may your life be long and prosperous," Wei Shuyu said softly.
"good."
Qin Qiong laughed heartily.
What seems like a misfortune may actually be a blessing in disguise.
Now, not only is his son safe and sound, but he has also done a great service.
"This is not the place to talk. Take me there quickly," Qin Qiong urged.
"By the way, Uncle Qin, we've been missing for four days. Why did it take you so long to find out about this?"
Along the way, Wei Shuyu asked, puzzled.
“Someone is spreading false information, saying that they saw you in Niujia Village. Our search has always been focused on the vicinity of Niujia Village.”
Qin Qiong gritted his teeth when this was mentioned.
Niujia Village is in the west, and Pan Yun's residence is in the east. He was completely fooled for three whole days!
It was only after the old soldier whom Wei Shuyu had once led mentioned Pan Yun that he shifted his focus to this place.
"..."
Wei Shuyu remained silent.
It's only a dozen or so miles away; if Qin Qiong had searched normally, he could have found it in less than a day.
It took four days because of fake news...
"father."
Upon seeing Qin Qiong, Qin Shandao rushed forward.
Qin Qiong patted Qin Shandao's head: "Not bad, you've grown a lot."
"Dad, I really did a great job this time, let me tell you..."
Qin Shandao launched into a long, rapid-fire monologue.
Qin Qiong didn't listen much; instead, he looked at Wu Qiqi.
Wu Qiqi held the Imperial Seal of the State in her hands.
Upon seeing Qin Qiong's gaze, he immediately handed over the Imperial Seal of the State.
Qin Qiong took it with a complicated expression, opened it, looked at it, and immediately closed it again.
"Uncle Qin, you didn't look well when you saw me. Did something happen?" Wu Qiqi asked with a worried expression.
"What an intelligent woman."
Qin Qiong sighed: "Wu Shihuo entered Chang'an without imperial decree and was arrested..."
Wu Qiqi's expression changed slightly, but she showed no surprise.
This outcome was exactly what she had expected.
How was he arrested?
Despite having suspicions in her mind, Wu Qiqi couldn't help but ask.
Qin Qiong was silent for a moment before saying, "I'm looking for you."
With the Cui family protecting him, Wu Shihuo was originally safe.
Even when Cheng Yaojin personally came to demand the person back, Cui Yixuan still refused to hand him over.
As a result, Wu Qiqi disappeared.
Worried, Samurai Go went out to look for someone himself.
Well, that's it, Li Junxian, who was lying in wait, caught them red-handed.
"father."
Wu Qiqi's body trembled.
"Qiqi, don't be afraid."
Choi Shin-ki patted Wu Qiqi on the back: "With my father here, Uncle Wu won't be in trouble."
"Yes, Qiqi, don't worry, I'll get my dad to speak up for him." Fang Yi'ai took full responsibility.
Seeing this, Qin Shandao couldn't be left behind and quickly grabbed Qin Qiong's hand: "Father, you should also help Sister Qiqi's father."
Qin Qiong fell silent again.
Wu Shihuo, as the governor of Jingzhou, was in charge of military affairs.
His entry into Chang'an without imperial decree was tantamount to treason.
It's hopeless!
In addition, Li Yuan's former subordinates all entered Chang'an.
Li Shimin would not let Wu Shihuo off so easily.
Li Shimin would kill Wu Shihuo as a warning to other former subordinates of Li Yuan.
There's no hope!
Cui Jia's efforts to protect Wu Shihuo also crossed Li Shimin's bottom line.
Li Shimin wanted to curb the Cui family's arrogance!
There's still no hope!
"Go back first, you've all worked hard these past few days," Qin Qiong said with a smile, changing the subject.
"withdraw troops."
Qin Qiong shouted loudly.
The large group of people assembled and began to retreat.
However, Wu Qiqi remained standing in the same spot.
Her expression was cold and inscrutable, revealing no emotion whatsoever.
But her increasingly pale face proved that she was not at peace.
"Qiqi, let's go."
Choi Shin-ki gave a greeting.
“Yes, don’t worry, we will all help you,” Fang Yi’ai chimed in.
How can I help?
Wu Qiqi murmured.
She had already analyzed the consequences of entering Chang'an without an imperial edict.
If it were someone like Qin Qiong, a high-ranking official under Li Shimin, it would be easier to say.
But her Wu family were former subordinates of Li Yuan.
Li Shimin wished he could get rid of him as soon as possible.
"At worst, we can break them out of prison," Choi Shin-ki said bluntly.
"Yes, you are our good friend, we will not stand by and watch you die."
A prison break?
Wu Qiqi smiled bitterly.
That sounds nice, but did you really manage to rob a few kids?
She considers herself a smart person.
But no matter how hard he racked his brains, he couldn't figure out how to rescue Samurai after he was captured.
The purpose of seeking out Wei Shuyu was simply to arrange for Li Yuan to meet with Wu Shihuo so that he could leave Chang'an as soon as possible.
The purpose of searching for the Imperial Seal was simply to have leverage in negotiations should something happen to Samurai Go.
The crime of treason is punishable by the execution of the entire family!
She originally planned to secretly keep the Imperial Seal of the State and use it to negotiate with Li Shimin.
This was the only solution she could think of...
When Qin Qiong appeared, her plan was immediately thwarted.
Perhaps Li Shimin will spare her life because she found the Imperial Seal of the State.
However, Samurai Go was still doomed to die!
"what to do?"
Wu Qiqi finally panicked.
Aside from Li Shimin changing his mind, she couldn't think of anyone else in the entire Tang Dynasty who could save Wu Shihuo.
"Qiqi, don't worry. Even if we can't do anything, we still have the big pot."
“You are a member of our Imperial College Legion, and the leader will not ignore you.”
"Like I said, you can always trust the big pot..."
"Because the big pot has never lost!"
Choi Shin-ki raised his head, looking proud.
Wei Shuyu?
Wu Qiqi turned her head and saw Wei Shuyu squatting next to the poison tree, intently collecting the sap.
"Big pot."
Choi Shin-ki shouted, "Chi-Chi needs your help!"
Wei Shuyu stood up and carefully put the lid on the kettle.
Then……
*Smack*
Wei Shuyu raised his hand and smacked him on the head: "Why haven't you left yet?"
"I'm waiting for you."
Choi Shin-ki covered his head in grievance.
*Smack*
Wei Shuyu smacked Fang Yi'ai on the head again: "Weren't you in a hurry to go to Cuiyunju to eat delicacies from land and sea?"
"I'm so full from eating scallion pancakes."
Fang Yi'ai covered her head, equally aggrieved.
Wei Shuyu looked at Wu Qiqi...
*Smack*
They both have the same brain.
Wu Qiqi was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed, "I'm a girl."
"Girls should stay home and not think about such things all day!"
"Let's go!"
Wei Shuyu tossed the water bottle over his shoulder and headed straight down the mountain.
Wu Qiqi puffed out her cheeks, her face full of anger.
No one has ever hit me since I was a child.
Soon, anger turned into disappointment.
"Qiqi, Daguo is going to help you."
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Wu Qiqi was confused.
Choi Shin-ki smiled mysteriously...
"If I slap you on the head, it means I'll admit you're one of us and I'm going to help you!"
